Always love this time of year. If you have been keeping track, anything new that comes out now is a 2013 release. Here in a few weeks I’ll be compiling picks for the BEST OF 2012 chart and year end program. If you’re involved in the scene locally, and you think you know what’s up with Colorado music, hit me up for a full list of all 2012 releases I’ve been tracking. New music in this week from Honkytonk Homeslice, the SCI band featuring Bill Nershi and his wife along with Scott Law and some friends. Also picked up the new Devotchka record Live with the Colorado Symphony that’s pretty bad ass. The Hollyfelds got their new disc to me this week – and it will no doubt launch them into their 5th Westword Music Award – and thereby push them into the Westword Music Hall of Fame since it would be their fifth win. ENJOY the videos … picked 12 from the show this week … about 50 mins.
